I fade in and out of interest. And I'd rather play than make maps, because I'm no good with the editor, although I have made one good one...

I think that WC3 it addictive if you stay away from it for like two weeks, wait for new games to come out and then play it for like three weeks straight. If you just play it all the time than you are playing like the same games over and over again (DOTA, Footmen Freenzy, TDs, Mauls, Mastercrafters).

Every summer I am away from WC3, but by the time i get back I am hooked!

And the Editor is always addicting.

Used to be addicted to WC3 1 year ago before my studies got too tough.
Now im busy with sch work so i seldom play.
Wc3 is still one of my favourite games but im more addicted to World Editor
Map making is fun:D

Well, I wouldn't say that the main game is addicting. It once took me about 6 hours to do a FFA on a full house, 12-player map. And that was against the computer (I ain't that good at the main game).
I find the custom games fairly addictive - that is to say, Footman Frenzy. I don't really try the others, though that's 'cos they kick downloaders.
I only use wc3 for the campaigns and footy now.
But I think the editor has its moments. I like to tinker with it, but can never really get a project off of the ground. I tried makin my own version of Footy, but got sidetracked by an RPG idea that keeps comin to the surface of my mind. Today I spent an hour makin 24 variations of the serpent ward, amkin sure everythin was parfect. An I'll probably never finish it, so it's all pointless, but that's the strange addictive nature of the editor for you.

So it's all fairly addictive, but Footy is like Heroin to me.
Even if I know I hve'nt got a cat in hell's chance of winnin a game, i'll still play that game till im defeated. Though most of the time I win cos im just too good.

    Hmm, how do I change my signature?
  • tom_mai78101 tom_mai78101:
    Signatures can be edit in your account profile. As for the old stuffs, I'm thinking it's because Blizzard is now under Microsoft, and because of Microsoft Xbox going the way it is, it's dreadful.

    @tom_mai78101 I must be blind. If I go on my profile I don't see any area to edit the signature; If I go to account details (settings) I don't see any signature area either.

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
